Description
Solar Bottle: a plastic bottle that replaces a 55 watt bulb
Harvey shares with us an ingenious idea that he has found on the Internet and that has since been implemented successfully in the Saladero Eco Lodge. The procedure is very simple:
- Get a plastic bottle, fill it with water and a little bit of bleach.
- Make a hole in the roof, insert the bottle halfway.
- Hermetically seal the edges so that rainwater does not seep through the roof.
- Ready! You have now a solar lamp that emits equivalent to a 55 watt bulb and will allow you to illuminate the room throughout the day light.
